This one's different because, at this festival, you're more free; you don't feel like you have to put on a front.

You may be able to pull it together, put on a front in front of others, but inside you're trapped, suffocating slowly.

I put on a front, though, and I act OK. If I do that long enough, maybe it will become a reality.

I put all my emotions into ironing until our guests arrive, and then I just suck it up and put on a front.

As exemplified by this amazing Australian TV interview from 1977, Poly was rather soft spoken and not at all eager to put on a front for journalists.

Laurie and Carla have thick skins and rarely show emotion, and they can screw with the boys without flinching; Jan conforms to her group of all male coworkers, taking pride in being "one of the boys"; and Monica serves as the slightly more emotional, female support system for the men, who put on a front of confidence, but long for reassurance — and maybe even a little mothering from her character.

Another classic example of the "Tart with a heart" character is the character of Nancy in Charles Dickens' novel Oliver Twist and the stage musical derived from it, Oliver!. In television history, the "tart with a heart" has become an important archetype in serial drama and soap opera, especially in Britain. During the 1960s, the character of Elsie Tanner in British series Coronation Street set the mold for future characters such as Bet Lynch, Carla Connor, (both also Coronation Street), Kat Slater, Stacey Slater and Dawn Swann (all three characters from the British soap opera EastEnders). Characters of this nature are often depicted as having tragic lives, but put on a front when in public to create the illusion of happiness.
